An aircraft fuel tank inerting system may include at least one fuel tank, at least one surge tank, an inert air assembly, at least one fluid valve connected to the at least one fuel tank, the at least one surge tank, and the inert air assembly, and/or an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit may control the at least one fluid valve to provide inert air from the inert air assembly to the at least one fuel tank and/or to the at least one surge tank. The electronic control unit may control the at least one fluid valve to provide inert air from the inert air assembly to the fuel tank during a climb phase of a flight and control the at least one fluid valve to provide inert air from the inert air assembly to the at least one surge tank during a descent phase of the flight.
